Please Help: Error Message:"IP Configuration: IP Address Already In Use..."

I'm not sure where to post this, but I'm going to start here... I have been having this issue and its really beginning to scare me.
*_The Problem:_* I keep getting a message with a RED Exclamation Sign and its titled "IP Configuration" and says this: *123.456.0.1 already using DHCP 123.456.0.100*
I have been clicking okay, but finally one day got annoyed and called the mac people to get help and... they didnt help a bit.
So now I am trying to find help from others.... please help. give as many suggestion as possible and i'll continue to google for help. Thanks.
*So is someone else using my address?*
*Is someone able to see my screen and information and stuff?*
*Why is this happening?*
Please answer these questions if possible.

To really help, a description of how the network you use to get online is configured is needed. Are you using wireless? Are there other computers that use this network and if so, what operating system are they running? What sort of router and modem are you using? etc.
So is someone else using my address?
Either another machine is using your IP address, or something is wrong with the DHCP server.
Is someone able to see my screen and information and stuff?
Probably not.
Why is this happening?
My guess is that the firmware on your router needs to be updated.

  • Please Help - Error message when trying to open itunes

    Hi
    Can someone help pls? I was in the middle of upgrading my version of itunes and my computer crashed. Now when I try to open itunes I get an error message as follows: 'iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience'.
    I don't know what to do! I am worried I have lost all of my music!?

    hiya!
    'Quick time failed to initialize. Error # - 2095. Please make sure QuickTime is properly installed on this computer'.
    okay, let's try a careful standalone QT reinstall:
    download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
    if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
    (if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    love, b

  • Please help: error message says ipod cannot be read from or written to

    Hi
    I have been using my iPod Video for a couple of months now without any problems, until yesterday. I tried to sync it after I downloaded a couple of new songs when I got this error message: "Attempting to copy to the disk 'Jason's Ipo' failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    The 'Jason' in 'Jason's Ipo' is me.
    Any help would be very much appreciated!
    2002 PC   Windows XP  

    Thanks, that was helpful.
    While I was waiting for your answer I restored my iPod to its original settings. The screen is now black and white and the font changed to something smaller. Is this normal? How do I put the playlists and songs back in? Please post a link if there is a page on this subject.
    Thanks again.

  • Please help - error message when installing iTunes 10

    I have tried several times to install iTunes to my laptop. Every time, I get an error message that reads: "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again."
    I tried deleting the temp file and uninstalled all Apple components and still get the same error message.

    Perhaps let's check to see if at least some of the iTunes components install.
    Try installing QuickTime "on it's own". (Actually, this'll install a fair few of the other related itunes programs too, but not all of them.) Get the installer that doesn't mention itunes:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    Does that install for you? If not, what error message do you get on the QuickTime install?

  • Please help--Error message in PSE 7

    When I open PSE 7 I'm getting an error message that says:
    Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime Library
    Runtime Error Program....Adobe Photoshop, etc
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application support team for information.
    and a couple times the message just says Adobe Photoshop has stopped working and must close.
    When I click "okay" the entire program shuts down.
    This started about 10 days ago.  I uninstalled the program and re-installed and it worked okay.  Now today the message is back again.  I've tried unplugging everything, restarting the computer and nothing is working.   I am using Windows Vista.
    Please help.
    Thanks, Doris

    I do not know enough about my computer etc. to
    follow the troubleshooting
    information that you referenced. But  I was able to check my system
    information and everything was okay in that area.  I've been using
    the PSE 7 program for almost a year with no problem until now.  Is there some way that I can talk to
    a "real live" person to get help.   Thank you for taking time to try and help me.  I'm just not computer savvy enough to follow the instructions as given.
    Thanks,Doris

  • HT201210 Please help - error message saying 'filmware file is not compatable', and videos will not transfer from phone to computor.  what can i do?

    As title says, I keep having this error message 'filmware not compatable' and my videos will not load. 
    Can someone please help this very non-tech-savy lady???!!
    Cheers in advance

    Bad news: It sounds as if you were sold a jailbroken iPhone.
    Good news: File a SNAD with eBay. Make sure all your correspondence has been through eBay Messaging. The fact that the seller has been ignoring you will not sit well with them.
    You will get 100% of your money back, including shipping. Paypal will simply seize his funds and return what is yours.
    Lesson: Don't buy a used iPhone.
    It's much worse for the seller. His PayPal and eBay accounts will be frozen. Until he squares up with both you and eBay, he's out of money and out of business.

  • Please help--------------Error instantiating EM configuration files

    I got the error that
    "enterprise manager configuration failed due to the following error:
    Error instantiating EM configuration files
    Refer to the log file at C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\cfgtoollogs\dbca\orcl\emConfig.log for more details.
    You can retry configuring this database with Enterprise Manager later by manually running C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\emca script."
    I ran the script manually but didnt work. Then I ran script emctl.bat and it gave me following errror:
    Error: Environment variable ORACLE_SID not defined. Please define it.
    Pls note that every thing was working fine two days ago. But suddenly I can not access EM. So uninstall Oracle, delete orale directory, reinstall oracle, but still got same problem. Can any one help? (I looked at some of the questions on EE already answered, but they didnt solve my problem either)
    Note: OS is Window Vista

    finally found solusion from web, let us share it:

    because i did clean oracle completely. this is very common problem when you delete and reinstall oracle.

  • PLEASE HELP - Error message, re "unsupport​ed" ringtone format

    Although I was able to open, download and use ringtones recently, now when I attempt to open any ringtones I receive this error message in the Media folder: "The media being played is of an unsupported format."  and will not play.  I haven't received any calls to test whether my phone will ring or not,  but I'm assuming since it won't play back in Media, I'm unable to pull up the ringtone..period. 
    I'm a newbie to Blackberrys...any help would be so appreciated.  Thank you.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I honestly don't know - the problem seemed to have fixed itself when I plugged it into the Desktop Manager and I sync'd everything.  Very strange, but I couldn't tell you exactly how the problem was solved.

  • Please Help: Error message with files.

    I'd REALLY appreciate some assistance with this, something has gone wrong with a large project and I'm prepared to beg!!
    The root of my problem is trying to open the media files in an iMovie project (well about half of them anyway, for some reason the other half are fine).
    When I try to open the .mov file from the project in Quicktime I get the following message (which sounds pretty drastic but I have no idea what it means):
    "QuickTime cannot open the file: "movie.mov"
    a bad public movie atom was found in the movie (-2002)"
    I've posted the following in the iMovie thread, but am not sure whether it is an iMovie issue or a Quicktime issue:
    I've been using iMovie for years and have never seen this before.
    I created a large project some time ago, and only about 50% of the files from the projects media folder will open. They show up in he media folder as the little black Unix executable file icons rather that the regular white clip icon.
    I've tried importing from within iMovie and get error message -2048, and the message that Quicktime can not parse the file. I've also tried opening the .mov file from the original project folder but no good.
    I REALLY need to salvage these files, any assistance would be much appreciated. I'm using iMovie HD in 10.3.9.

  • Error message: "conflicts with a path already in use"

    I am trying to establish through Contribute version 2's
    Connection Wizard a new connection to www.charlesfigley.com. After
    I enter this web address and hit "next >" I receive the
    following:
    Network paths can’t overlap
    The network path you have entered conflicts with a path
    already in use by one of your website connections. If you need to
    access this site at a higher level, edit the path of your existing
    connection.
    You cannot create a connection to a subfolder using this
    network path.
    I have checked with GoDaddy and they can find nothing on
    their end to account for such a conflict. Can you help solve this
    mystery? Thanks to anyone who reads this.
    Thanks,
    Charles

    I do not know Contribute 2, but what I do know that in later
    versions of the program, this message means that you have another
    connection in Contribute pointing to the same webaddress.
    Check this by doing the following:
    1. in the main menu go to Edit>My Connections
    2. check all connections there to find the path you described
    3. delete or adjust this connection

    Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.
